Amending sections and clauses in the Succession Amendment Bill

LANDnet Uganda held a round table meeting with the Uganda Women Parliamentarian Association (UWOPA) to share ideas and discuss the proposed Succession Amendment Bill and thereafter amend sections and clauses that actually need amendment in the Succession Act, Cap 162.

The amendment exercise touches 58 clauses of the Succession Act 2018 to be amended, repealed, substituted or inserts new ones before enacted by parliament.

The amendment of the Succession Act is intended to bring it in conformity with the Constitution of the republic of Uganda and provide for gender equality in accordance with articles 21 & 33 of the Constitution.
The LANDnet Executive Official first presented the Succession Act, Cap 162 to the members before discussions.
